MTSW-105-07-S-D-180

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MTSW-105-07-S-D-180 is a board stacking connector from the Samtec MTSW series. It features 10 contacts arranged in 2 rows with a male gender and straight orientation. The terminal pitch is 2.54 mm (0.100 inch). Termination is achieved via solder through-hole mounting. Contact plating consists of gold over nickel, while termination plating is matte tin over nickel. The contact material is phosphor bronze. The housing is constructed from polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) with a UL 94 V-0 flammability rating. Operating temperature ranges from -55°C to +125°C. Rated voltage is up to 500 VAC.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Variable overall pin lengths available to satisfy diverse application requirements
• Standard 0.100 inch pitch compatible with classic TSW header strip configurations

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-Board interconnection
• Cable connections
• General purpose PCB header applications

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official Samtec datasheet to confirm exact pin length and configuration. Ensure compatibility with mating connectors regarding Flex Stack positioning. Confirm RoHS compliance status for your region. Check for automotive A-Series availability if required. Validate mechanical dimensions using provided 3D models before final design integration.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when variable post heights are needed within a standard 2.54 mm pitch system. The Flex Stack feature enables precise alignment adjustments. Verify current ratings against application loads, as values vary by contact configuration. Ensure housing material meets thermal requirements. Confirm that the straight through-hole termination matches the PCB layout constraints.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the MTSW series, which modifies the classic TSW header strip by offering a wide range of overall pin lengths. The series supports vertical and right-angle orientations. It utilizes .025 inch square posts for robust connection. The design facilitates flexible stacking solutions in compact electronic assemblies requiring precise height control.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other MTSW series variants with different pin lengths such as MTSW-105-07-S-D-130 or MTSW-105-07-S-D-0130. Generic equivalents must match the 2.54 mm pitch, 10-position, dual-row format. Ensure replacement parts maintain the same gold-over-nickel contact plating and PBT housing material for identical performance characteristics.
